Hello! I've been trying for the last few days to get procmail to work
under AFS with a .forward file. ARRRRRRRRGGGG!!!!!!!
Any suggestions? I've tried all sorts of .forward files, the most
successful seeming to be:
"/afs/ualberta.ca/home/c/f/cfms/bin/procmail"
since procmail is residing in my home bin directory. This directory (as
well as my home directory) is set up as system:anyuser rl
Here is the sort of bounced message I get when trying to send mail to
that account with that .forward file:

So, can anyone make some sense out of what my mail system is choking on,
and more importantly, what I can to to make things work properly.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
